These NPEs could > be prevented with a simple null check and a MetaException with a proper error > message should be thrown instead. > Example: NPE is thrown in the following test cases > * TestDatabases.testGetDatabaseNullName > * TestDatabases.testDropDatabaseNullName -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
